Lyrics
And so it is and so it was
That Jerry let loose Oberon
And prayed the choice he made was true.
It seemed the fairies told the truth
For nothing they did seemed uncouth
In fact, they even brought some roux.
I’m gonna make me mahogany roux,
Not quite sauce ‘n’ not quite stew.
Thicker than mud and stronger than glue,
That’s how I make me mahogany roux.
(Repeat)
The ever spinning wheel of chance
Finds humor in each circumstance,
That it selects with age worn spokes
And proves that life is just a joke.
But you say life is just a dream
While grasping at its ripping seams.
A stitch in time you can’t provide
You turn your back; you close your eyes.
The wave of nothing sucks you in
And face to face, we meet again.
When all you know has come undone,
That’s when you know that it has won.
But roux is simple, roux is sweet,
Roux will knock you off your feet.
Roux is full of love and joy
Roux for every girl and boy.
Roux for me, roux for you, Mahogany Roux.
Roux for me, roux for you, Mahogany Roux.
I’m gonna make me mahogany roux,
Not quite sauce ‘n’ not quite stew.
Thicker than mud and stronger than glue,
That’s how I make me mahogany roux.
Roux for da dogs, Roux da the cats, Roux for da frogs who drink it by da glass.
Roux for da gimps, with seven toes, Roux for da chimps here or to go.
Roux for da bull, Roux for da cow, Roux for da cool who done tried the Roux by now.
Roux for my head, Roux for my teeth, Roux filled waterbed sure does feel neat.
Roux for my fingers, Roux for my toes, shove it up my ears or stick it up my nose.
Roux for my joy, Roux for my sorrow, take it all and put it in a big wheel barrow.
I’m gonna make me mahogany roux,
Not quite sauce ‘n’ not quite stew.
Thicker than BLOOD and stronger than YOU,
That’s how I make me mahogany roux.
